    Many of the a20 optimizations will move to a19 easy enough. I'm even thinking we upgrade a19 to Unity 2020.3, since it was not hard and some optimizations, like mesh baking, need newer Unity versions.


    Now there’s a plot twist Id never see coming.

    So, a rose is a rose by any other name. Even if it isn't what you would specifically call "toxic" -- that's probably a difference between our idiolects, and there's no issue with that -- there's still something misguided and antagonistic behind it. You can call it whatever you like, but my point is that I've noticed it's common in this community.

     

    And you reacting with a poop emoji to all of my posts isn't really helping your case, lol.


    Roland, apparently the poop emoji is toxic, can we get it removed?  Lol.

     

    Toxicity is how you say something, not the point you are making.  Saying i dont like this game because of x,y, and z is not toxic in itself.  It very much matters HOW you say it.

     

    id bet the vast majority would agree that simply saying “You need to optimize A19 before A20” is NOT toxic.  
     

    Edit:  Sorry Roland, too late seeing your post.

    Shown: someone not acting toxic at all.

     

    There's a clear line between reasonable and unreasonable criticism, and comments like "you need to optimize A19 before A20" are just silly. There's a general thread of antagonism throughout this whole community and it is lame and alienating.

     

    Do you even know what toxic means?

     

    "You need to optimize A19 before A20" is clearly misguided and completely wrong and not what the devs will do.  Also, not even REMOTELY toxic.

     

    Toxic would be "Hey you stupid (insert curse word)  --- can you optimize this Piece of (insert curse word) game so my friends and can play? you lazy (insert curse word) Devs

    From this thread, wow this community is acting toxic. I think the game is great and I'm excited for A20 and all future Alphas. Especially for bandits.

     

    Calling people toxic when they are not toxic is slang for.  "I hug trees and can't handle criticism or tough questions"

    I have a question : there is idea about new "versions" of zombies like : another type of doctor , riot police , child zombie or just diffrent clothes color for zombies?


    Maybe the zombies can be streamlined into 3 versions, because 3 is magic, and more is too complex.  

     

    Normal zombie, fat zombie (slow/strong), and skinny zombie (fast/weak).

    Any chance Signs will support player art?  maybe via a mod like in Rust, where I can edit and paint or give it a URL to an external PNG/JPG to post?  

    the server would store all the player art in a folder so that Admins can review them in bulk and replace if needed. 

     

    it allowed for game server sponsors for events or charities. 

     

    This would be amazing.  You know the first thing I'd put up on my sign, of course.

    @madmole Can you elaborate on this? 

     

    Are the plans to reconfigure the work flow, or axe the forge? 🤔

     

     

     

    I think streamlining everything to be built in 1 station is the best route to go.  Its too complicated having built not only a FORGE, but WORKBENCH, AND a chemistry station.. I mean how can you possibly figure out how to build and work all 3 of them.  I mean.. The Cement mixer is the nail in the coffin for complexity.

     

    Just have one "Crafting Station"  that builds everything.

    On a serious note... I'm all for streamlining "the process", but what about maintaining some "flavor" in the game?

    @madmole Don't you think you've gone too far with this simplification process? :suspicious:

     

    Is obvious his answer is no, or else he wouldn't want to keep doing this.  

     

    @MadMole, can we get rid of all the different types of things that you can eat and just call it "food" for simplification sake.   Its complicated having to learn how to make all the different types.  "food" would be much easier to manage for us non hardcore players.  C'mon we cant all have played as much as you.. just think about the new people.

     

    Gardening would be much easier as well.... Just having 1 thing called "food Crop" which grows into "food".    When u kill animal you get Raw Food.   

    Yes the cooked raw food and picked crops would both end up being called food but hey...  gameplay > realism.

    Frames are there yet, as well as particle board (same thing) for experimental building with every shape available. That upgrades to wood, wood upgrades to stone, stone upgrades to concrete then steel. All blocks go poof.

     

     

    Is reinforced concrete gone ?

    It will require a 3D-printer connected to your PC.

    Every time you open the shape menu, the printer will commence to produce a 1m x 1m x1m ABS block, a chisel and a hammer. (printing time is assumed to make the game more realistic considering building time).

    Once the block is finished, you can enter "creative mode" with hammer and chisel, and have absolute and total freedom shaping the block.

    Then you 3D-scan it (oh didn't I mention you will have to own such one too?) and it then can be placed inside the game.

     

     

    If I had a 3D printer.  Can I print out a copy of  Asa Akira?

    So that's it. Is my translation software is not good enough. By the way, in China, almost daily 7 d2d players to leave a message to my account to ask A20 development progress and an open test of time. Ask every day. Our passion is too high.
     

     
    I love asian women.  Can you hook me up?

    Any word on any perk tweaks, like charismatic nature, which is both the most useless and OP perk in the game?

    Usually when some people complain that something is OP and some people complain its useless — it means its balanced.  Not sure what it means when one person argues with himself about it.

    Are there any mods (for vehicles) that are already ready or in development? I would really love to know what mods are planned and how will they work?

     

     

    Probably all kinds of cool stuff.  For example.

     

    Nerf the already slow default speed and make a mod to get it back to normal again.

    Nerf the armor and make a mod to get it back to normal

    Nerf the headlights and make a mod to get them back to normal.

     

    :)

     I still remember A16 with all the pain it gave to my PC. 

     

    Hell no to the 1 fps hordes. +1 for the future. 


    Huh? For me A16 ran like a champ, 17 was horrid, A18 was was almost on par with A16, but A19 took a step backwards.


    A19 is not bad, just not as good as A16 or A18 as far as performance goes, for my PC anyway.

    I just finished this one, which is a big win:

    Optimized terrain control textures to not update with every mesh update.

    Those peaked at 2ms spikes on my PC, on several frames, when new chunks load, adding to the FPS drop that already happens when building meshes.


    Where is the English translation of this?  So far i got: Optimized, PC, and FPS.

    i though sub biomes where like a Mix of biomes

    like a Snowy wasteland, or a Burnt forest in the pine woods, or a overgrown dessert/Plains, brunt snowy forest, Snowy plains, Grasslands, Dried forest, Maple forest, Desert wasteland etc. 

    so what are they in reality? or whats the plan for them?

     

    I think sub biomes will be where the bohemeth lives, if you catch my drift.

    I'm biased, but I think the new pipe weapons and loot/progression will add a ton. Greatly enhanced random gen will be great too, as well as a million other things.

     

    Awesome, what is the main goal of the the new loot/progression change?
